Explanation
The best options for furthering your application's reliability goal while balancing velocity, reliability, and business needs are to have more frequent or potentially risky application releases and to tighten the SLO to match the application's observed reliability. Having more frequent or potentially risky application releases can help you increase the change velocity and deliver new features faster. However, this also increases the likelihood of consuming more error budget and reducing the reliability of your service. Therefore, you should monitor your error budget consumption and adjust your release policies accordingly. For example, you can freeze or slow down releases when the error budget is low, or accelerate releases when the error budget is high. Tightening the SLO to match the application's observed reliability can help you align your service quality with your users' expectations and business needs. However, this also means that you have less room for error and need to maintain a higher level of reliability. Therefore, you should ensure that your SLO is realistic and achievable, and that you have sufficient engineering resources and processes to meet it.
